Since I received the truck at the end of last year, I want to replace the tires not only for the look but also because I do some light off-roading and I want to have tires more resistant to cut and punctures the the one I now have. ( continental. so far pretty good)
I have been looking at different brand but I now am mostly interested in the Mastertrack badland, available at Amazon and at Walmart.
The are extremely affordable and have very good review.
One thing that I noticed is that the tread design seems to be different depending on the size. Is this correct or its this just me?
The very good reviews are for the tread design not available on the tire original size.
I think that I am going to stick with the original tire size 235/65R17 104H
All 4 tires mounted at Walmart for less than $500!
Do you have any comment about my choice?
To have the tread design that I prefer could I use a slightly different size of tires
Thank you.

Bought Dextero all-terrain at Walmart,$400 out the door with road hazard. Good ride quality, put P245/65R17s on set of steelies, instead of the stock Lariat 19s for the summer in WY. These tires are actually made in the USA, I believe South Carolina.

i went 245/65 17 Wildpeaks and absolutely love them. Not ta ton of road noise and piece of mind when driving on less than ideal roads. The increased circumference also adds a tad more ride height and really improves the look

Why that much wider?
Do you have enough clearance all the way round?
I look on Walmart and they tell me that this size of tire will not fit my 2025 Maverick

Ok. Well you do you. I got new rims and tires less than 24 hours of me getting my maverick delivered so if you want opinions on it, than let me know.

That size 245's is very popular here! It won't rub at full turn, it's only 1 inch wider from the 235's so

Thank you very much. I think that 235 is as wide as I want to go mostly for MPG
That's for sure, a bigger tire size comes with less MPG
225/65R17 standard
235/65R17 Tremor package

Have around 2500 miles on them, no rubbing of any kind, yes website said the same at America's Tire. I trusted our fellow Maverick owners with this size and I don't believe there was one complaint about rubbing

245's will look great!
Well, I had to go with 235 Mastertrack ATX (and not AT) tires as no one would install the 245 or other AT tires because of the size or the speed rating ( they have to be 'S" rated, all AT tires are 'H" rated) I am sure that I shall be happy with them.
